Great stay…
Very relaxing - we only went sightseeing a couple of times - enjoyed the peace and the warm tropical breeze at the house. It was great to go out on the dock in the moonlight. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable accomodation.

The property was exactly as shown on the listing. Very clean and well maintained. We were pleasantly surprised over and over again how well supplied it was, truly everything you could think of was in the home. On a quiet private street. We did some fishing from the dock, so much fun. Highly recommend this property

Ahhhhhh-mazing
I'm not really sure where to start here. The location was awesome. Quiet neighborhood, comfy beds, but close enough to EVERYTHING with a short drive. The house is very nice, with everything you need to get settled in right away. But the main draw here is what you may experience in your backyard while there. Yes, you have sunsets, but you have great fishing, and an abundance of wildlife to encounter. We caught tarpon right off the dock, snapper, gruntfish, and even a grouper! We saw several different nurse sharks, and the sea turtles were abundant. We snorkled, and saw dolphin right off the dock. We saw countless anoles, and even had several large iguana come and hang out with us during our stay. Unfortunately we didnt get to see the Manatee, so I guess we will have to come back. Truly folks, this is a great place, and we spent our trip home talking about how quickly we can get back. Alida was awesome to deal with, and I just cant give you many negatives here. We loved it, and hope to get back soon.

Anniversary trip
We brought our family to the property to celebrate our 40 anniversary. 6 adults and a teenager. The property was well maintained and as advertised. It was very comfortable for a group of 7 and all agreed it was the favorite home we had ever vacationed at to date. There are already calls from the family to return to the property next year. During two days of our stay we had outer bands of Hurricane Helene and felt completely secure in the home. Contact with Alida was easy as was the entire rental process.

Beautiful home tucked away on a very quiet street!! We felt like we were in paradise all by ourselves!! The home had everything we needed inside and out. The kitchen was fully stocked - we cooked every meal there and had everything we needed to do so. Beautiful gas grill to cookout on. The bedrooms were very large with comfortable beds. Plenty of closet space and drawers to put your belongings away. The bathrooms were clean and spacious. Plenty of bath and beach towels. We had everything we needed! There was plenty to do outside, too! We saw a manatee, nurse sharks, parrot fish, puffer fish, iguanas, sting ray, a variety of birds…we went fishing from the dock and caught a tarpon, 2 baby sharks, and all kinds of fish. There were enough kayaks, paddle boards and inflatable tubes for us to use as well as masks and snorkels to get out on the water. The pool was beautiful and refreshing! Plenty of chairs and loungers along with a hammock to get in or out of the sun. We LOVED the LARGE screened in porch to get out of the sun! We drank our morning coffee out there and ate dinner out there every night. This house is incredible!!! It has it all!

Amazing all around!
We had an amazing time at this house! It is in a great area. The neighborhood is quiet and great for bike rides. The house had everything we needed and more! We had so much fun fishing, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding. There is so much wildlife to see. There was a manatee that would visit with us in the afternoon. We also saw iguanas, turtles, sting rays, and all kinds of fish. The pool was so nice to have as well. Sunsets on the dock were unbelievable. It truly felt like our own little private paradise! Easy check in and check out. The host was great and easy to work with. Be sure to bring bug spray for the no see ums! Overall A+++ thank you for sharing your home with us!

Choose your joy
We all found this luxurious house to be designed for comfort and privacy. When the water was too ruff for boating, we spent a lot of time on the large screened porch. The warmed pool water was a real comfort after bouncing over the waves or sitting on the porch trying to win a strategic board game. Late night gamming in the living room still left us areas for conversation, reading or sleeping. We enjoyed various local restaurants, cooking our catch and our one-time takeout pizzas. We found an abundance of kitchen essentials and numerous appliances to facilitate cooking or creating your favorite beverage. The bath towels and beach towels were plentiful. The master bedroom was so amazing that it had to be shared for the experience. One couple enjoyed the master bedroom for the first week and a different couple enjoyed the last week of the special luxury. During the daytime, we enjoyed the master bedroom’s very long wall view of the pool, back yard, dock and gulf. At the end of the day, we appreciated the truly darkening drapes that afforded us a wonderful night’s sleep. The master's access to the screened porch helped us to keep an eye on the sleeping baby. We all liked the master bathroom’s well-lit double sink vanity and we LOVED the perfect walk-in glass block shower.

Best place to stay on Marathon
My family and I absolutely loved staying at this property! We go to Marathon every year and this is hands down best property we have ever stayed at. Alida was a wonderful host and very accommodating with any needs we had. Beautiful property with gorgeous views. They offer so many amenities including kayaks and floats. Conveniently located near town with everything you would need like restaurants, grocery store, bait shops, etc. We definitely will be staying at this property again in the future!

What an amazing property!!
I have experience with vacation renting a property and know first hand that this place was exceptional. First off the owner was completely accessible and responsive to my many questions. The property had absolutely everything you could ever need. We were celebrating a milestone birthday and there was a mixer and baking pans, which is not always available in vacation rental properties. The was a little problem with the Keurig coffee machine that was resolved in less than 24 hours with a new machine. The beds were comfortable. The place was immaculate, the linens were a high quality, we didn't need to bring beach towels, there were kayaks and pool toys...I could go on and on. The screened in porch was massive and allowed us to be outside but shaded from the sun. The dock was so long and wonderful. We enjoyed hours and hours of family time in the heated pool. My family has memories that will last a lifetime. I will recommend this property to anyone wanting to spend some time in the Florida Keys. Thank you Alida for sharing your wonderful home with my family.

Very nice house with one issue
Our vacations have been beachfront VRBO houses for several years now. This house was one of the best for comfort, ease of use, kitchenware (I like to cook and this was well outfitted). Not super luxurious but very comfortable. Very nice pool, great dock for a swim or sunset cocktail. Highly recommended. But there is one issue which is not the fault of the homeowner and which made the house less enjoyable. The area is having a problem with a seaweed inundation called sargassum. The waterfront of many of the homes in the area is packed with this seaweed which gets trapped and slowly rots putting out a bad smell of rotten eggs. Its quite unpleasant but it is something you eventually get used to. If that is going to be an issue for you, check with the owner to see if the problem has been resolved. Eventually this will disappear by itself.
